We then navigate the rocky terrain of Cincinnati’s mayoral race, spotlighting how candidates often sidestep vital issues like crime and infrastructure. The broader landscape of political challenges also makes its way into our discussion, from government shutdowns to the Democratic Party's internal struggles. Immigration debates bring another layer of complexity, where listeners express frustration over being misrepresented in discussions about legal versus illegal immigration.
